[QUOTE="Zoatebix, post: 2218358, member: 11401"] You use "code" when you cut and paste from a source document with a font where all characters and spaces are the same width (like how the old command-prompt OSes and text editors worked) and when lining up things top to bottom matters. The tag is called "code" because computer programming language or mark-up language often fits that visual profile, I guess. Or maybe it's just done that way conventionally so that code will appear the same on any platform. Whatever - IANACS (I am not a computer scientist :p) For things to line up right, you need to make your table in Notepad or some other text editor that's just ASCII or Unicode (I think) with no funny stuff , or with an even-spaced font like courier in a more 'modern' text editor, and then paste everything between the code tags. I guess you could count the number of characters and spaces you use in each line to get things to line up, but I find it much easier to line things up visually. I really like the airship traits! I'll come back and contribute and discuss more soon, but I have to run! -George [/QUOTE]
